Success!!  What I ended up doing is removing the IVTV drivers (via
apt-get remove) and commenting the ivtv stuff out of my modprobe.conf,
then testing it.  My bttv card worked.  I then re-installed the IVTV
drivers and it worked again.  Then I added everything back to my
modprobe.conf except I commented out "alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv"
and everything worked!!

Will commenting out "alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv" hurt me down the road?
